What you can expect

Experience the perfect blend of Sri Lanka’s rich cultural heritage and vibrant wildlife on this full-day tour. Begin with a guided visit to Polonnaruwa, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and ancient royal capital. Explore the impressive archaeological remains, including the Royal Palace, intricately carved Buddha statues at Gal Vihara, temples, and stupas that showcase the island’s historical significance.

Please note: As Polonnaruwa is a sacred site, appropriate attire covering shoulders and knees is required to respect local customs.

Following your cultural exploration, you have the option to enjoy a traditional Sri Lankan lunch at a local restaurant, offering an authentic taste of the region’s cuisine.

In the afternoon, embark on a 4x4 safari through Minneriya National Park. Known for its large elephant populations, the park provides excellent opportunities to observe wild elephants, along with other wildlife such as deer, monkeys, and various bird species. Your experienced guide will assist in spotting animals and share insights about the park’s ecosystem.

This carefully curated tour provides an enriching experience combining historical discovery with thrilling wildlife encounters, ideal for travellers seeking a comprehensive Sri Lankan adventure.
